COMMENTS

This ball is a great ball for your house bowler. When theres friction this ball is amazing. This ball has a high hook potential and creats alot of angle off friction and on your house patterns or your medium light sport patterns this ball just throws pins around.

COMMENTS


Likes: I originally threw this ball on house pattern with the ball out of the box. And no matter how far I threw it right, it kept coming back. What a great matchup of a high rg core with  this coverstock. This ball will be AWESOME on any patterns where there is carrydown and backends become weak. Especially in the late leagues. Even on house patterns where there is a really high volume in the middle, I adjusted cover with a 4000 pad on it so it read the oil a little better and then the ball still had more than enough on the backend. This ball even reacts great with surface adjustments. It looks AMF has got a very good ball here. I have attached picture of my layout I used for this ball also.

OMG pearl. It's very good for light oil to mid dry. It has a very good reaction. Gets down the front of lanes clean. the ball drives to the pocket really hard.

Likes: OMG Peal the follow to the OMG is a great 1-2 punch!  OMG Pearl is extreme skid/flip!  Ball reminds of the reaction we had in the mid late 90's from everyone, big skid and BIG flip.  Get in, send it out to the dry and watch it tear back.  Simple drilling for me 4 x 3 cg swung out, small weight hole.  I was worried it would be too crazy so tried to calm it down a little and that's what I got - a "little" calmer.  Lots of backend end and a little midlane, more than I thought I would.  I like the color scheme, easy to read the ball's motion.  Good carry, 707 first night on a 42 foot THS pattern.  Not enough the 1st game but after that I could really open up the lane.  Haven't used in Sport League yet.  Took a "dead" 3000 abralon to it and that let me get into the oil a little more so I think it's going to be a versatile cover.  Excellent ball for deep angles, broken down conditions.  It holds true to it's stamp of MONSTER BACKEND!
